Lake Mary-based S&B Holdings Group LLC plans to transform its 3,188-square-foot 1323 N. Orange Ave. building into a 4,788-square-foot restaurant and bar space with a rooftop deck, according to marketing materials.

It’s the latest transformation for the Ivanhoe Village neighborhood that’s seen hundreds of millions of dollars in investment in recent years for new residential and commercial space.
